'Cannibal' killer commits suicide

[rpannier]

MEXICO CITY, Mexico (AP) -- A murder suspect dubbed "the cannibal" was found dead in his prison cell of an apparent suicide Tuesday, two months after police found cooked and seasoned bits of his girlfriend's corpse on a fork and plate in his apartment.

Jose Luis Calva, a self-proclaimed poet and dramatist suspected in at least three murders, was found hanging from his belt in his Mexico City jail cell Tuesday morning, the city department of corrections said in a statement.

He acknowledged killing her and cutting up her body after a violent drug-and-alcohol-fueled argument, but denied he ate her flesh.

He claimed he carefully cleaned, cooked and seasoned the flesh to feed it to dogs he found on the street as a way of getting rid of the body. He titled his book "The Cannibal Poet."

on note: He seasoned the body and had it on a fork to feed local dogs????

4. What was his age?

Maybe I'm wrong but I think cannibalistic homicides have to do with sexual immaturity or displaced sexuality.

This is an area that needs further exploration.
